Mariott - an extra set of AA miles
I just happened to notice that Mariott is listed under giftcertificates.com which is part of the aaeshopping program. Another way to get another set of miles for the stay.

Here are a few other options, as well: http://evreward.com/store/go/1443 .
Of course you forgo the 5 points/$ that you would earn with a Marriott Platinum Visa, but some of the mileage offers for Marriott GCs are decent.

I usually buy 8 $50 certs at a time.That way I can break it down so that I do not loose any value.
One thing about the paper certs-If you give the desk $100 cert and the bill is $85 you do not get change back
so make sure the final bill is more than your cert.
